1. How political could a SM get? Does my content have to be historically true throughout, or can I use historical facts to create a fictive plot that my SM would be based on? Can a SM have a suspect that is kind of stereotypical in the sense that the extent to which it promotes the use of stereotypes which could potentially further enhance prevalent but objectively unethical social constructs, actually, depends on the subjective mind of the player and is very much open to interpretation?

2. Automatic Questions: Someone has already asked about this and said that SS wrote about it in some subthread already but I couldn't find it. Can you tell me where this thread about the automatic questions is? (I want to get rid of some, or, I will just have to reorganize the thing. I haven't advanced much but the structure will have to change dramatically and that will kind of change the plot. You can just as well say "change it" if you think I stated my problem clearly enough)

3. Is it me or is there actually no way to replay an unfinished mystery or invite someone to play it without sending it to the editors first? I mean being able to use the player screen(interface?), not the writer's SM creator/editor. (harder to follow chronology mistakes this way as you have to switch between lots of tabs, so if there is such an opportunity I wouldn't want to miss it.)

4. Can we submit more than one SM at a time?

So be prepared to wait a while on your later-submitted projects. It could take some time. :-/

I hope that all makes sense?? Good luck, and your writing sounds interesting!! Hope to see the finished project soon!! ;-D

Thanks a lot for the detailed reply, Breitkat. It really helped me grasp the gist of it :).

I don't think I'll be able to finish it soon. I also have no idea whether it will turn out interesting or boring. It totally depends on whether I can pull of planning a storyline that advances coherently in a good beat.
